Animal biology is at the crossroad of opportunities provided by the development of genomics, on the one hand, and on the other hand, societal issues dealing with the role of animals in our societies and the relationship between humans and animals. The aim of the PRIAM Master course (M2) is to train students who will become actors able to understand the complexity of animals living in their environment, to adapt them under a moving context, to monitor animal populations and to develop precision livestock farming systems. The PRIAM course offers two ""axis"": (i) Animal breeding and genetics, (ii) Animal physiology, nutrition and precision livestock farming systems. The first axis is included within the European Master in Animal Breeding and Genetics (EMABG), coordinated by Wageningen University (The Netherlands).
